Wedding ceremony tomorrow

Chapter 218 Another Dimension

Two days later.

Luo Qingfeng, Huo Man, and Shangguan Yunfei from the Southern Academy gathered at the Southern Academy and, led by Elder Miao Zongyi, headed to Yunxue Mountain in the Northern Frontier to participate in the trial.

Miao Zongyi was a tall, thin, and elegant middle-aged man. He was said to have been transferred from the Kyoto headquarters, so he usually led most of the trial missions sent by the headquarters.

Shangguan Yunfei was wearing a black dress today, and a black veil covered her face, concealing the conspicuous birthmark.

The girl remained taciturn, merely nodding slightly to Luo Qingfeng and Huo Man upon meeting them without uttering a word.

The sun had just risen when the four of them set off.

The four of them rode in a carriage drawn by two powerful horses and left the city through the north gate of Wangxing City.

These two Cloud-Soaring Horses have special physiques, and the feed they are given every day is carefully selected and extremely expensive. The value of the food they consume is even comparable to that of a cultivator at the second level of the Open Heaven Realm. Therefore, they run extremely fast and can run continuously for three days without stopping.

Even ordinary wild beasts would avoid it at all costs.

Of course, the carriage was also made of special materials, so it remained stable and not too bumpy even at extremely high speeds.

The four men closed their eyes and rested in the carriage, remaining silent.

Three days later.

The carriage began to slow down, and the group clearly felt the temperature drop suddenly.

Around noon, the carriage stopped in a small town.

As soon as Luo Qingfeng and his companions got out of the car, they immediately saw the snow-capped mountain, white as jade and towering into the clouds, not far from the town.

Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, the town's houses were dilapidated, and there were few pedestrians, making it appear particularly desolate.

Disciples from other branches of the Demon Suppression Academy also arrived quickly.

The group of twenty-five disciples, led by Elder Wang Yan of the main academy, had a simple meal in the town before leaving for Yunxue Mountain.

The disciples had all introduced themselves to each other and were talking quietly on the way.

Huo Man seemed to be very popular, with some of the other students from different departments trying to strike up a conversation with her. However, the girl remained arrogant and domineering, looking down on everyone and exuding an imposing aura.

On the way, Wang Yan carefully informed his disciples about the risks and rules of this trial.

Yunxue Mountain looked close, but it wasn't until evening that the group arrived at the foot of the mountain. They then crossed the canyon, climbed up the mountainside, and came to the entrance of a cave.

The area is already guarded by people from the Demon Suppression Academy.

After exchanging pleasantries, they began to talk about the new disciple trial.

After nightfall, Yang Chuan, who was in charge of guarding the place, led his disciples into the cave and arrived at the entrance to the alternate dimension.

"Twenty-five people. You can travel in teams or alone, it's up to you. There may be monsters inside, as well as various dangerous ancient restrictions or monsters. Once you enter, there is a risk of death at any time. If anyone is afraid, you can still back out now. Once you go in, we will reopen the entrance after fifteen days to help you get out—"

"Opening the entrance will require several elders to expend a significant amount of star power and consume some star stones, so the entrance will only be open for a maximum of two hours. It will open at 7 PM on the 15th of the month and will close after two hours. Those who miss it will not be allowed to enter again."

Yang Chuan solemnly reiterated everything that needed to be explained.

At this moment, several elders began to exert their powers, working together to open the entrance.

At the entrance to the alternate dimension, there was a blue light screen that looked as thin as a cicada's wing, but breaking through it was not easy.

Several elders worked together, and after nearly a quarter of an hour, the square slowly caved in from the middle, revealing an entrance large enough for one person to pass through.

"Hurry up and go inside!"

Yang Chuan urged immediately.

Without hesitation, the disciples immediately filed in in order.

Luo Qingfeng followed behind Huo Man. After entering the light screen, he glanced back, only to be gently poked in the back by Shangguan Yunfei, who was following behind. The girl whispered, "Let's go."

Seeing that there were still a few people behind him who hadn't come in, Luo Qingfeng quickly quickened his pace.

After passing through a dark and narrow passage, a ray of light suddenly appeared ahead. After walking several hundred meters further, the view opened up before us.

"Chirp, chirp—"

The sound of insects chirping filled the air, and the atmosphere seemed to change.

The group exited the passage and stopped in their tracks, looking around in astonishment.

This is a hillside, surrounded by lush vegetation and rugged rocks, with a winding river below and flowers blooming everywhere.

It was nighttime, and the sky overhead was filled with a full moon and countless stars that seemed almost within reach.

After a moment of stunned silence, the group began to look for teams to join.

Several male disciples approached Huo Man, intending to speak to her, but before they could utter a word, Huo Man raised her chin slightly and said arrogantly, "I don't team up; I prefer to be alone!"

The group had no choice but to awkwardly retreat.

Some disciples did not form teams and left alone.

Luo Qingfeng naturally didn't want to team up, and just as he was about to go down the mountain, Huo Man immediately caught up with him and said, "Luo Qingfeng, let's go together."

Those disciples who overheard this glanced at him and secretly thought to themselves: "Didn't you say you didn't like to team up and preferred to go it alone?"

"I don't team up; I prefer to work alone."

Luo Qingfeng echoed her words and quickly descended the mountain.

Huo Man's eyebrows twitched, and she glared angrily, ignoring the strange looks from the others, and followed them directly.

More than twenty disciples soon descended the mountain one after another.

According to the trial rules, each disciple must collect twenty spiritual herbs or kill ten demons or monsters here to complete the task.

As for the spiritual herbs, treasures, and cultivation techniques obtained here, they all belong to you.

Luo Qingfeng and Huo Man descended the mountain and continued forward.

After passing through the woods below, the other disciples had dispersed and gone in different directions.

The two continued walking forward, and after crossing a hillside, they found themselves in a wild and desolate place, with tall vegetation reaching into the clouds and all sorts of unfamiliar flowers and plants growing vigorously.

"There's a miracle cure!"

Firevine spotted a medicinal herb and immediately rushed over. Just as she was about to bend down to dig it up, a bright red venomous snake suddenly darted out of the grass and bit her throat.

Huo Man snorted coldly, grabbed it, and with a flash of flame in his hand, instantly burned the venomous snake to ashes. Then he bent down, took out a shovel, and scooped up the spiritual herb.

"I'll pick more for you once I've picked enough."

Huo Man put away the spiritual medicine and said to Luo Qingfeng.

Luo Qingfeng ignored her and looked toward the forest on his right, silently taking out the Demon-Slaying Blade.

"There's demonic energy here!"

At this moment, Huo Man also noticed the abnormality in the forest. Her expression immediately became serious, and her long, fiery red hair moved without any wind.

Luo Qingfeng turned to look at her and said, "Either we split up and go our separate ways, or you gather herbs and I kill demons, and we won't interfere with each other."

Huo Man looked at him in surprise, then paused, a smug smile suddenly appearing on her lips: "Luo Qingfeng, are you trying to please me and show concern for me? I'm gathering herbs, you're fighting, are you afraid I'll get hurt?"

Luo Qingfeng ignored her and, gripping the Demon-Slaying Blade, walked towards the woods on the right.

"Hmph, he clearly has feelings for me, but he's too afraid to admit it. That's not like a man!"

Firevine followed behind smugly, seemingly in a much better mood.

"boom!"

Before long, the sounds of battle could be heard from the woods.

Luo Qingfeng, wielding the Demon-Slaying Blade, easily killed a demon.

The two soon encountered a second demon.

This time, the demon was quite troublesome. Huo Man wanted to go up and help, but Luo Qingfeng stopped her. After another quarter of an hour, the battle was resolved.

This demon even has a demon core.

The joy of accident!

With this demon core, Luo Qingfeng now has five demon cores, five more to go!

The two continued walking forward.

Huo Man looked at him suspiciously and said, "Why won't you let me help? Are you afraid I'll steal your demon core, or something else?"

Luo Qingfeng said calmly, "I need to hone my combat skills."

Huo Man said, "But I also need to be trained."

Luo Qingfeng glanced at her, thought for a moment, and said, "If it's a demon, I'll kill it. If it's some other monster, you can have it. How about that?"

Huo Man raised an eyebrow and said, "What if I don't agree?"

Luo Qingfeng shrugged: "Then let's split up and go our separate ways."

"snort!"

Huo Man snorted coldly and said nothing more. She continued to stride behind him with her long legs, tossing her fiery red hair, and looking arrogant.

Fortunately, there are many medicinal herbs in the forest.

Before long, the two encountered a monster whose entire body seemed to be made of stone. It was not only indestructible but also extremely powerful.

Huo Man told Luo Qingfeng not to interfere, and that she would fight alone.

The girl's body and movements were light and swift, and her punches were heavy. In no time, she smashed the stone monster to pieces.

"I'm not afraid of anything, no matter how hard it is!"

She blew the stone chips off her fist and glanced at Luo Qingfeng with a hint of provocation.

Luo Qingfeng replied dismissively, "Impressive."

The two walked through the woods and continued on their way.

They gathered herbs, fought monsters, and slew demons along the way. Dawn broke quickly, and then night fell just as fast.

Both of them were quite tired, so after nightfall they found a secluded cave and prepared to rest there for the night.

Luo Qingfeng sat cross-legged in the corner, reviewing his gains over the past day and night.

[Progress: 70]

[Ten-Star Realm of Creation, Progress: 50]

Fortunately, both lines of data increased significantly, and I also obtained a magic pill, making it a very fruitful harvest.

After treating some minor wounds, he leaned against a corner to rest.

Huo Man took out a white velvet blanket from her storage ring, spread it on the ground, and also took out a pillow. Then she called to him, "Come and sleep with me. Dingdang is guarding the cave entrance, so it'll be fine."

Luo Qingfeng looked towards the cave entrance, where a small rabbit with fiery red fur was sitting there seriously, its ears perked up, looking alert.

"My spirit beast, the Fiery Rabbit."

Huo Man introduced herself with a hint of pride, then beckoned to him, "Come and sleep here. There's no one else here, so don't be shy. Don't worry, I won't touch you without your permission."

"————"

Luo Qingfeng felt that the last sentence sounded familiar. Isn't this what scumbags usually say to girls?

"No need, I'll sleep here."

"

He leaned against the corner and closed his eyes.

Huo Man snorted and ignored him. She took off her shoes, lay down on the carpet, and looked at him with her big, watery blue eyes.

A moment of silence.

She suddenly spoke up: "Luo Qingfeng, don't you want to advance faster?"

Luo Qingfeng opened his eyes and looked at her.

Huo Man reached out and removed the hair ornament from her head, letting her long, thick, fiery red hair fall down. Then she loosened the belt around her waist, looked at him with watery eyes, and said, "I need you, and you need me, don't you? While I'm still willing, come and possess me. I will gently give you my virginity."

The tinkling sound at the cave entrance turned its head to glance at her, then looked at a man inside the cave.
